Abstract:
In an embodiment, a method of signaling status at a routing device is provided. In this method, the routing device establishes an inter-chassis control plane channel session with a remote routing device. Here, the routing device and the remote routing device are linked to a multi-homed routing device. The routing device then synchronizes with the remote routing device by way of the inter-chassis control plane channel session to identify a state of a link from the routing device to the multi-homed routing device. The state of the link is thereafter advertised by way of Border Gateway Protocol (BGP). Additionally, a method of discovering inter-chassis communication peers via BGP between the first and remote routing devices is provided.

Abstract:
Presented herein are techniques to automatically provision cross-domain end-to-end services. A method includes receiving, at a cross-domain orchestrator, a request for a service, decomposing the request for the service into a first provisioning command and into a second provisioning command, sending the first and second provisioning commands to the first and second domains, respectively, receiving, from the first domain, in response to the first provisioning command, a first constraint associated with the first resource of the first domain, receiving, from the second domain, in response to the second provisioning command, a second constraint associated with the second resource of the second domain, distributing the first constraint to the second domain, and the second constraint to the first domain; and initiating, based on the first and second constraints, the service using the first resource of the first domain and the second resource of the second domain.
